Separatist leader reinforces threat to impose visa regime on Chisinau

Igor Smirnov, head of the breakaway Transnistrian republic, was recently quoted by local news agency Olvia Press that he stands by his earlier statements that he could impose a visa regime on Chisinau if Moldovan authorities continue to allegedly confiscate Russian and Ukrainian passports from Transnistrian inhabitants.

"I think that Russia and Ukraine could engage in the same response if Chisinau continues to do this," Mr. Smirnov added.
